Ricardo Sandoval Crowned New WBC Flyweight Champion<\/strong><\/h2>\n

American Ricardo “Ni\u00f1o” Sandoval defeated Japan’s Kenshiro Teraji by split decision to win the World Boxing Council flyweight crown in the main event of a card organized by Teiken Promotions at the Yokohama Buntai in Yokohama, Japan.<\/p>\n

The fight was intense from start to finish; Teraji was the favorite due to his experience in addition to being the local fighter. However, Sandoval recovered from a knockdown in the fifth round and fought against the current to prevail on the judges’ scorecards.<\/p>\n

From the beginning of the action, the Japanese fighter pressed using his jab, moving forward. Sandoval landed some good punches, but Teraji responded and maintained the initiative during a cautious start.<\/p>\n

At Sandoval’s best moment in the fifth round, Teraji sent him against the ropes and knocked him down with a combination to the face. Sandoval quickly got back on his feet to continue the action.<\/p>\n

The following rounds were very close with alternating dominance from both warriors, but Sandoval performed better.<\/p>\n

The judges’ scores were: Joseph Gwilt (117-110) and Leszek Jankowiak (115-112) in favor of Sandoval. Pawel Kardyni (114-113) in favor of Teraji.<\/p>\n

With this victory and the conquest of the world crown, Sandoval improved his record to 27-2, with 18 knockouts. In contrast, Teraji fell to 25-2, with 16 knockouts.<\/p>\n
